Who's Counting?

With the game changing every nine hands, you may be wondering who keeps track of how many hands have been played and how they do it. The responsibility lies with the dealers at each table. Each is equipped with a nine-chip pile of non-commissioned poker chips, which remain in plain sight in front of them. Each time a hand is played, the dealer takes a chip from his/her left and moves it to the pile on their right, or vice versa.

A special 'Hold'em/Omaha' placard also sits in front of the dealer, reminding the players what game is currently being dealt. It may seem easy enough, but these simple tools are essential to keeping the peace at the table.
